For you wand wavers that are so inclined, lots of bugs popping the last 2 nights. Sulphurs, March Browns, and caddis hatching. Stupid stockies hardly working the surface but the wet fly fishing has been spectacular.

Lots of cookie cutter bows to the net, a few little smallies, and more fall fish than I cared to count.

Prospertown bugs are starting to happen. Lots of bugbirds and bats showing up. Not so much yet at Turnmill yet. Just mosquitos. Nymphs aren't just for Trout.

Birds flying sorties up, down, and across river are one of the 1st things I look for. Always a good sign of bug activity. Unfortunately as it gets dark replace bird with BAT!
